Does your plan for protecting the game go any further than moaning on a forum no one important reads in a language the producer doesn't understand?

No one important reads this forum? You could have fooled me.

But no, this guy doesn't have a plan, he's an idiot.

And see, here is where I take an issue with your opinion. Just because one person has more time to "put in more effort" than another doesn't mean they deserve "better" rewards. More rewards, maybe, but they already have that in the fact that they can experience more of the game (level all jobs, crafts, complete the zodiac weapons, etc). We all pay for this game. We all deserve the same quality of rewards.

There it is. You are basically claiming that anyone who can't do coil by default are bad players. Generalizing. And you are incredibly wrong.

This very comment is the stupid you claim can never be remedied. The level of elitist BS in this post is astounding. Assuming that someone can't do the mechanics because they're stupid? That they 'lack mental capacity?' That is moronic and downright ignorant. It's disgusting.

When do you start your job at NASA Einstein? Surely they must have snapped you up after seeing 'cleared coil T9 in FFXIV' on your CV.

I'd like to speak to this, I'm avg level i128 DRG and I haven't cleared T5 yet. Why? Not because I cannot clear the content, but because I took a break from the game and missed out on becoming part of a tight-knit group of players to static with, not because I'm not good (I tend to have the highest (#1 or #2) parser numbers in content I do with friends who have clearly all the coil content). But I lack the static, and yes there are players who are either 1) expecting a carry by having the bare minimum item level to access the content, which you will normally find in DF or 2) to alleviate this low item level problem elitists setup Party Finder parties but don't accept people without a clear already, so catch-22.

It's not just those "stupid" low item level players as you describe them, but its also those elitist mindset players that also hurt the game, honestly I would say more-so than newer low item level players do.

Considering I am reading so many players who dont have a group at this moment in time, how is that you guys havent banded together to form a group?
There seems to be a huge amount of players in the same scenario, I wonder what the problem is, there is no catch 22, start to learn to become a raid leader, the biggest asset to any group isnt a tank or healer, its a dedicated raid leader with a plan.

I won't speak to my personal reasons as it oddly enough is a bit personal lol, but...

Some people simply cannot devote a scheduled time because their real world stuff takes precedence. Some people don't want to feel like a game is a choir as it is their outlet to escape their real world life, becoming a raid leader to some is like becoming a boss at a job, something they don't want to deal with. The problem isn't the commitment, the problem is the mind-set across all player types. We only want to run with our cliques and try so desperately to run out the rest. Its a shame really, because there is talented players on all spectrums but lots of people just don't want to open their eyes and see that.

It's just a game. It's not that serious.

NOBODY plays an MMO for a challenge. They don't have challenges. They have time sinks. You want challenges? Go back 30 years in gaming when gaming meant something.
